Most March Madness wins this decade. Thanks, Cal.

Hurts, doesn’t it? Grateful UK made the Sweet Sixteen this year under Pope, even with an injured roster. Things are looking up again! Go Cats!
Okay. That's fair enough.
Here's another way to slice the baloney: Most NCAA Tournament wins since 2010: Yes, that's right. #1: University of Kentucky.

I just hope our guy had fun. That's the most important part at the end of the day. Am I right fellers?
Guessing you just assumed this with no research.
Since 2010 North Carolina has 31 NCAA tournament wins. (not counting play-in garbage)
Since 2010 Kansas has 33 NCAA tournament wins.
Since 2010 Gonzaga has 33 NCAA tournament wins.
Since 2010 Kentucky has 34 NCAA tournament wins.
Since 2010 Duke has 38 NCAA tournament wins.
Didn't count anyone else as I'm assuming these are the top 5.

I think 10 years is long enough to draw some conclusions.
The OP was insinuating over the last 10 years Calipari sucked butt in the tournament.
You then said Calipari had a good run before 10 years ago.
Im not sure what you were trying to say except exactly what the OP said.
Cal had tournament success in the first part of his tenure.
Cal stunk in the tournament his last 10 years.
Thats not a different way to slice baloney.
Pope doubled our total in a year.
I'm assuming the prior decade UK was near the top or top. Cal back slid badly his last 4 seasons.
Yeah, but generational poverty and stuff
IMO Cal never wanted Kentucky basketball to be bigger than him. As long as he was getting kids to the draft was all the clout he was trying chase. It’s just crazy how much he’s underachieved with the talent we’ve had.
Calipari moved Dean Smith from the Top Of The List for underachievers.
This speaks directly to the fall the last 5 yrs he was here.
Laziness?
Stubbornness?
Contempt of the Bennies?
All of the above?
Wouldn’t surprise me if Houston has the most all time tournament wins without winning a title. Would imagine both them and Gonzaga has to be in the top 5 or so in that category.
Calipari sucks. He pissed away more talent than any coach in history. He’s also an egotistical, arrogant, condescending, narcissistic, and self absorbed ahole.
And, that’s being kind.

Dean Smith coached at a blue blood for like 40 years and won 2 titles. I really don't know if Cal would have won a 2nd title with another 20 to 25 seasons or not. Both underachieved massively.
This isn't the past 10 years, we have 12 wins in the last 10 years, 16 wins out of the last 10 tournaments (2020 covid).
Purdue, Gonzaga, and Illinois all have more tourney wins than Houston without a title. Think Houston may be #4 on that list.
I was close then. Houston has a plethora of final fours and no titles. Kinda uncanny really.
Don’t know where we are now, but Pope will bring us to top 5 wins in the 2020s. Not on the list is crazy though!!
